The dreaded shirt curse has struck me again.
Got Shearer on the back of my championship shirt, he never returned as manager
Got Jose Enrique on my shirt first season up, he left
Got Nolan on my shirt second season up, he left
I chose Coloccini this year because he is captain and just signed a 5 year deal. NOW HES LEAVING.
Happened to me before, never had names printed before until Woodgate. He was sold within 5mths. Then Jenas, Bellars. Then I stopped getting names cuz I hated our squad (geremi duff owen butt smith viduka babayaro etc etc). They stayed all the way till our relegation.
Then 10/11 I had Enrique and Carroll, both had left for Liverpool by the next summer. Last season seemed to have broken the curse though, I got Colo and Ben Arfa. This season I had Cabaye and Tiote, although I may have jinxed them a little. Not a great record definitely.
PLEASE get 23 Ameobi on the next one!
